I have no Josh> idea of its state. I'm aware of the Linux trace project. It doesn't do what I want. I'm looking for a gprof-like profile of an app, but counting BE_BUBBLE_ALL etc., or L3-cache miss events instead of program counter hits. There used to be good tools in Debian -- q-tools was one --- specifically for IA64. These appear to have bit-rotted with the kernel changes from perfmon to perfmon2 to the current whatever it is. What I'm asking, is, what is supposed to work now in Debian? I can file bug reports against all of them I suppose :-( Peter C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
